How to prepare Soft Cream Cookies
You can prepare the dough by hand or with the help of a mixer. Pour the egg, sugar, and cream into a bowl. Simply mix with a fork. Add the softened butter in small cubes and the grated zest of an untreated lemon.
Mix with the fork. At this point, add the sifted white flour, potato starch, and baking powder. Mix first with the fork and then by hand until you have a soft but not sticky dough; if necessary, you can add 1-2 tablespoons of flour.
Form a dough ball, wrap it in plastic wrap, and let it rest in the fridge for 30 minutes. Take the dough and roll it out on a lightly floured work surface to a thickness of 1/4 inch. Use a round cutter of 2 inches to cut the cookies, and with a smaller cutter, cut a hole in the center to make small rings.
Place the cookies slightly apart on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake the Breakfast Cookies in the preheated static oven at 350°F for 14-16 minutes. Let them cool slightly before transferring them to a tray and decorate them as desired with powdered sugar.
